Re: After being denied a solution, I would like to clarify that this is CITY property. I do not understand how and why I should “contact the county regarding this” because the City of Bloomington owns this property. As an employee am I supposed to contact the County regarding issues at my workplace? No! That’s why I’m filling out this report. There is an invasive species on the CITY OF BLOOMINGTON’s property of which they have vowed to remove in recent initiatives. This is the responsibility of the city, not the county. I feel like you didn’t even actually read what I wrote and just looked at the address and said “NOPE! Not my responsibility” Bradford Pears (invasive species) located at Monroe Water Treatment Plant. The two trees are located at the discharge point of a surface drain. More importantly, the trees are located directly adjacent to the Hoosier National Forest, which is just a mere 50ft away (across Shady Side Dr). Currently, the trees are bearing fruit. It appears that these fruits' seeds have the opportunity to traverse the slope and end up in our watershed, tainting the Hoosier National Forest, as an invasive species. The trees should be removed ASAP, as part of the City's initiative to systematically remove Bradford Pear trees from public property. Given the proximity to the National Forest and in the confines of the Lake Monroe watershed, this is a priority site.
Excessive growth blocking sidewalk on both sides of the street
Bamboo behind lot 132 at Southcrest
Vacant lot between 3124 and 3120 E Ramble Road. The shrubs and trees branches are encroaching on the public sidewalk. The owner needs to maintain their property so that the sidewalk is able to be traversed and not require pedestrians to walk in the street. Thank you.
Overhanging branches from a tree. They hang so low that they strike cars.
yard not maintained, overgrown
Townhouse condos behind us have not trimmed the weeds that have come up as a result of all of the rains this season.
Ticket #205013 was closed by Barry stating "it is way outside the city limits" which is incorrect. This property is indeed in Bloomington: 1645 S Olive St Bloomington, IN 47401. The issue: overgrown yard and vegetation piles are a hazard and promoting mosquito and tick habitat.
The address I entered (1621 S Dorchester) is one in a series of condos that I mean to report for overgrowth (I believe they're managed by an HOA). I manage a property at 1803 E Thornton Dr. There is a ton of overgrowth coming from those condos on Dorchester that have grown over and through our back fence. I would like the HOA, or whoever is responsible, to clean it all out. Thank you for your help!
